This family is real–genuine, loving and fun. I could gush over them on and on, drooling over Anya’s Spicy Green Mango Line (fashion with a heart and soul), the creative juices flowing through the well-read daughter to create her own book, and the adventurous souls of the both boys, but I’ll let their images speak for them. They shine through.

Did I mention a really naughty kitty?

Golden light on golden hair–you are beautiful Becca!

As I scrolled through looking at the images from this family session, a wave of gratitude rolled over me. I met this family when Max was just born. I have returned to capture a little moment in their lives every year since. I love how the photos show the changes, year after year. What do they do? What did kids play with? How did they interact? How did they love? They aren’t pretty portraits–they are real moments. They are perfect to me.

It all goes so fast…

Earlier this year in the spring, Cheryl from Vashon Dance Academy asked me to help her with their poster for this year’s production of Mary Poppins Ballet. Dancers and their shapes…

Vashon Allied Arts needed a photo of the trio for their upcoming marketing campaign. Times like this (all of these) I really appreciate the people my work brings into my life.
